	Finally i get an ECU into boot mode « on: September 05, 2014, 03:37:35 PM »

After mucho pain in the butt i have managed to get into Boot mode

I tried Galletto software and never had any luck for months, different ways of wiring and powering the various pins on the ecu and no luck
so i bought an MPPS clone cable from ebay
Within half an hour of installing the drivers i was reading my ECU in boot mode

Bloody awesome
All i need to do is turn the immo off on my file, i have run it through ME7check and all is well
I did some reading on here and found the eeprom tool thread here>>>> http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=6134.0
But i seem to be having a few small issues with my commands
i have renamed the program to tool
so i try tool.exe--in\immo.bin but get the following

C:\Users\User\Desktop\eep>tool.exe--immo
'tool.exe--immo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Users\User\Desktop\eep>tool.exe--in\immo.bin
The system cannot find the path specified.

C:\Users\User\Desktop\eep>tool.exe--in immo.bin
'tool.exe--in' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I'm not sure of the command structure i need to get to immo off on my file

Yes i can upload the file and i'm sure one of you fine people will do it for me, but that wont teach me (as easy as it would be )
can anyone straighten me out ?
Thanks
Steve

1) why is your post full of extra blank lines

2) when you type a sentence, do you type "entencebecausespacesseparatewords" or "this is a sentence because spaces separate words"

i.e.

"tool.exe--infile.bin"

vs

"95040tool.exe --in file.bin"

The file you've attached it's 1024k not 0.5k, so I suspect it is a flash bin not an EEPROM bin.

Heh well he did say he had renamed it to tool..

Unrelated, in future I'll probably call it eepromtool.exe as I have a zillion files starting 95040..

Ok i get it (face palm)

I'll try to stop acting like a tool

If my file is a flash how do i set the MPPS for boot mode ?? to get the eeprom ? or am i not getting into boot maybe ?

Thanks for your replies

Afaik, you cannot use mpps to read/write the EEPROM. Your easiest option is argdub's tool, see the sticky at the top of this board. Don't even need to use boot mode to read the EEPROM, although you do to write it.

Slim, I managed to do this today. Wink

I didn't use mpps to read it though. That just read my flash.

I used Me7_95040 by ArgDub
http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=1168.0

It wouldn't work for me through OBD though. I had to bootmode it to get a 512 byte file which i can read in a hex editor.

The newest versions of MPPS allow for eeprom read/write

Just not the clones.

Good to know

I've had so little success with clone tools its laughable, almost entirely given up on them.

Im using the Argdubs tool and get this error

C:\Users\User\Desktop\boot>prog.exe --OBD -r -p3 -b9600 95040.bin
Ver: 1.31
Com Port: 3
Baud Rate: 10400
Opening COM3 ... OK
Initiating communication ... FAIL. (error=0x07)
Closing COM3

I'm trying to change the baud rate but have had no luck, i tried moving the b9600 to after -r but this makes no difference
the port baud rate on the pc is 9600 , i cant select 10400 on the PC
any idea why i'm getting this error ?
could it be cable related ?
i have tried , kkl, ftdi (used with nef), galletto, mpps

Use boot mode. Couldn't get OBD to work even to read. Didn't need to change baud rate either.

Using kill ftdi cable, latest ftdi d2xx drivers I just use --OBD -r -p1 and it works fine. Sometimes it takes me a couple of tries, but it's not failed yet. Plugging/unplugging the us. From the PC and bouncing the power on the ecu seems to sort any failures I have, or sometimes just running the command again fixes it.
